Here’s what it’s like to wake up on a portaledge thousands of feet up El Capitan

Have you ever imagined what it would be like to wake up thousands of feet up? Watch the video above. Fredrik Rapp — the man holding the camera — and his friend are perched up on a portaledge thousands of feet up El Capitan, in Yosemite. Unless you understand Swedish you won’t be able to make out what they say, but who needs words when the images are so amazing? Waking up in your room will now seem boring and not half as peaceful as this, but hey, at least falling out of bed will not be as scary.
